[QUOTE="Darryle, post: 2925276, member: 109917"] No issues, I spin it a couple of times when I go to shut it off. I toasted several sets of gaskets. The fireproof nomex gasket on the lower portion only is money. Mine came off when I recently moved so I went to Ace Hardware and bought the factory gasket kit, it sucks. I have a nomex gasket sitting on the table that I plan to swap out when I switch from the table it's in back to the nest that came with it. I use a coarse Arkansas stone to clean the surface to prep it for attaching the new gasket. I don't use the self adhesive versions, I think that the one I have is a Lavalock, it comes with the glue. Take the hinge rings off and clean both surfaces using the stone and alcohol or acetone with a wire brush to clean the crud off as you work. Attach the gasket with the first end down unbraided about a 1/2", working around the the start, cut the gasket about 3/4" too long and unbraid it laying it over the first unbraided section. Set your lid straight down and don't move it. Then watch a couple of videos on YouTube on how to adjust the hinge and you should see the back come off the gasket in unison with the front when you open it. Adjust until it does. [/QUOTE]
